NS and NSO-Donor ligands and their metal complexes. Synthesis and characterisation of a new low-spin iron(III) complex with 1,2-di(o-aminophenylthio)ethane and iron(III), cobalt(III) and manganese(III) complexes of 1,2-di(o-salicylaldiminophenylthio)ethane

Summary Iron(III) complexes of a quadridentate N₂S₂ donor ligand, 1,2-di(o-aminophenylthio)ethane (DAPTE) and its Schiff Base with salicylaldehyde, a hexadentate N₂S₂O₂ donor ligand,viz. 1,2-di(o-salicylaldiminophenylthio)ethane (H₂DSALPTE) have been synthesised and characterised.The Schiff base ligand (1 mol) gave a dark green tri-iron(III) [Fe₃(DSALPTE)(HDSALPTE)Cl₃]Cl₂ complex when reacted with anhydrous iron(III) chloride (1 mol). The Mössbauer data of this complex suggest the presence of three iron sites, one of which is octahedral and the other two tetrahedral. On the other hand, Fe(ClO₄)₃ reacted smoothly with H₂DSALPTE in ethanol to give a mononuclear pseudo-octahedral complex in which the ligand functions in a dibasic hexadentate fashion. Mössbauer data suggest the presence of a low-spin-high-spin equilibrium in the solid state. The manganese(III) and cobalt(III) complexes of the Schiff base, H₂DSALPTE, are also studied for the sake of comparison with the corresponding iron(III) complex. The N₂S₂ ligand, however, formed a low-spin pseudo-octahedral iron(III) complex. The complexes have been characterised by elemental analysis, molar conductance values, cryomagnetic data and i.r., electronic and Mössbauer spectral data.     

Synthesis,characterization and antifungal activity of glycylglycine Schiff base complexes of 3d transition metal ions

In the square-planar [NiL(NH₃)]·2H₂O complex, the ligand, 2,4-pentanedione S-methylisothio-semicarbazone occupies three coordination sites with the bonds to the central atoms involving the terminal nitrogen atoms of the isothiosemicarbazide fragment [Ni–N(3) 1.831 Å and Ni–N(2) 1.842 Å] and the oxygen of the 2,4-pentanedione moiety [Ni–O 1.844 Å]. The template reaction of [NiL(NH₃)]·2H₂O with 2,4-pentanedione and triethyl orthoformate, HC(OEt)₃, gave, by heating the complexes, NiL¹ (1) (L¹ = dianion of the quadridentate NNNN macrocyclic ligand 2,10-bis(methylthio)-5,7,12,14-tetramethyl-1,3,4,8,9,11 -hexaazacyclotetradeca-2,4,6,9,12,-14-hexaene) and NiL² (2) (L² = dianion of the quadridentate ONNO ligand 3-acetyl-6-thiomethyl-9-methyl-5,7,8-tri-azadodeca-3,6,9-triene-2,11-dione) presents described.     

Synthesis and characterization of novel oxime-imine ligands and their heteronuclear ruthenium(III) complexes

Vicinal carbonyl oxime (HL¹) and oxime-imine (H₂L²) ligands and their mononuclear Ru(III) and Cu(II), heterodinuclear Ru(III)-Mn(II), Ru(III)-Ni(II), Ru(III)-Cu(II), and heterotrinuclear Ru(III)-Cu(II)-Ru(III) chelates were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductivity, IR, ESR, ICP-OES, magnetic moment measurements, and thermal analyses studies. The free ligands were also characterized by ¹H NMR spectra. The carbonyl-oxime ligand coordinates through the oxygen of =N-OH to form a six-membered chelate ring. The quadridentate tetraaza ligand (H₂L²) obtained by condensing of the bidentate ligand 1-p-diphenylmethane-2-hydroxyimino-2-(1-naphthylamino)-1-ethanone (HL¹) with 1,2-phenylenediamine coordinates with Ru(III) through its nitrogen donors in the equatorial position with the loss of one of the oxime protons and concomitant formation of an intramolecular hydrogen bond. Stoichiometric and spectral results of the metal complexes indicated that the metal: ligand ratios in the mononuclear complexes of the ligand (HL¹) were found to be 1: 2, while these ratios were 1: 1 in the mononuclear complexes of the ligand (H₂L²). The metal: ligand ratios of the dinuclear complexes were found to be 2: 1, and this ratio was 3: 2 in the trinuclear complex. The article is published in the original.     

Synthesis,spectroscopic and electrochemical studies of copper(II) and cobalt(II) complexes of three unsymmetrical vic -dioximes ligands

Cobalt(II) and copper(II) complexes with three dioxime ligands cyclohexylamine-p-tolylglyoxime (L₁H₂), tert-butyl amine-p-tolylglioxime (L₂H₂) and sec-butylamine-p-tolylglyoxime (L₃H₂), have been prepared. The metal to ligand ratios of the complexes were found to be 1?:?2. The Cu(II) complexes of these ligands are proposed to be square planar; the Co(II) complexes are proposed to be octahedral with water molecules as axial ligands. Ligands and complexes are soluble in common solvents such as DMSO, DMF, CHCl₃ and C₂H₅OH. The ligands have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV-VIS, ¹H?NMR, ¹³C?NMR and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV-VIS, magnetic susceptibility measurements, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and electrochemistry. Electrochemical properties of metal complexes show quasi-reversible one-electron redox processes. However, Co(L₁H)₂ and Cu(L₁H)₂ complexes show another oxidation peak in the positive region. This single irreversible oxidation peak is caused by the cyclic ring of the ligand. Data also revealed that the electron transfer rates of metal complexes with L₁H₂ are higher than the other complexes.     

Synthesis and Characterization of a New (E,E)-Dioxime and its Homonuclear Complexes

N′-(4′-Benzo[15-crown-5]naphthylaminoglyoxime (H₂L) and its sodium chloride complex (H₂L·NaCl) have been prepared from 2-naphthylchloroglyoxime, 4′-aminobenzo[15-crown-5] and sodium bicarbonate or sodium bicarbonate and sodium chloride. Nickel(II), cobalt(II) and copper(II) complexes of H₂L and H₂L·NaCl have a metal–ligand ratio of 1:2 and the ligand coordinates through the two N atoms, as do most of the vic-dioximes. The BF₂⁺-capped Ni(II), Co(III) and mononuclear complexes of thevic-dioxime were prepared. The macrocyclic ligands and their transition metal complexes have been characterized on the basis of IR, ¹H NMR spectroscopy and elemental analyses data.     

Synthesis, characterization and electrochemical investigation of a novel vic-dioxime ligand and its some transition metal complexes

4-(Chloroacetyl)diphenyl ether was synthesized from chloroacetyl chloride and diphenyl ether in the presence of AlCl₃ as catalyst in a Friedel-Crafts reaction. Then, its keto oxime and dioxime derivatives were prepared. 4-phenoxy-(N-4-chlorophenylamino)phenylglyoxime (H₂L) was synthesized from 4-(phenoxy)chlorophenylglyoxime and 4-chloroaniline. Ni(II), Co(II) and Cu(II) complexes of H₂L were obtained. The mononuclear Ni(II), Co(II) and Cu(II) complexes of H₂L have a metal–ligand ratio of 1:2 and the ligand coordinates through the two N atoms, as do most of the vic-dioximes. The structure of the ligand was identified by FT-IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, ¹³C NMR (APT) spectroscopy and elemental analysis data. The structures of the complexes were characterized on the basis of FT-IR, ICP-AES, UV-Vis, elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility measurements, and cyclic voltammetry. The electrochemical measurements were obtained by using cyclic voltammetry in DMF solution at room temperature. The electrochemical behaviors of H₂L and its complexes showed that the redox process of H₂L has one irreversible oxidation wave, whereas the redox processes of the complexes have both oxidation and reduction waves with metal centered.     

Fac-mer equilibria of coordinated iminodiacetate (IDA2?) in ternary CuII(ida)(H?1B)? complex formation (B = imidazole, benzimidazole) in aqueous solution

pH potentiometric and spectrophotometric investigations on the complex formation equilibria of Cu^II with iminodiacetate (ida²⁻) and heterocyclic N-bases, viz. imidazole and benzimidazole (B), in aqueous solution in binary and ternary systems using different molar ratios of the reactants indicated the formation of complexes of the types, Cu(ida), Cu(ida)(OH)⁻, (ida)Cu(OH)Cu(ida)⁻, Cu(B)²⁺, Cu(H^-1B)⁺, Cu(ida)(H₋₁B)⁻, (ida)Cu(B)Cu(ida) and (ida)Cu(H₋₁B)Cu(ida)⁻. Formation constants of the complexes at 25 ±1° at a fixed ionic strength,I = 0.1 mol dm⁻³ (NaNO₃) in aqueous solution were evaluated and the complex formation equilibria were elucidated with the aid of speciation curves. Departure of the experimental values of the reproportionation constants(ΔlogK _cu) of ternary Cu(ida)(H₋₁B)⁻ complexes from the statistically expected values, despite their formation in appreciable amounts at equilibrium, were assigned tofac(f)-mer(m) equilibria of the ida²⁻ ligand coordinated to Cu^II, as the N-heterocyclic donors, (H₋₁B)⁻, coordinatetrans- to the N-(ida²⁻) atom in the binary Cu(ida) _f complex to form the ternary Cu(ida) _m (H₋₁B)⁻ complexes     

Synthesis,spectral characterization,and antimicrobial activity of copper(II), cobalt(II), and nickel(II) complexes of 3-formylchromoniminopropylsilatrane

A new series of Cu(II), Ni(II), and Co(II) complexes have been synthesized from 3-formylchromoniminopropylsilatrane (C₁₉H₂₄O₅N₂Si) (2) and 3-formylchromoniminopropyltriethoxysilane (1). Silatrane ligand (C₁₉H₂₄O₅N₂Si) (2) has been synthesized by the reaction between 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and 3-formylchromone followed by a treatment with triethanolamine. The nature of bonding and the geometry of the complexes have been deduced from elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibility, infrared, electronic, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and ESR spectral studies. The electronic absorption spectra and magnetic susceptibility measurements of the complexes indicate square planar geometry for Cu(II) and Ni(II) and tetrahedral geometry for Co(II). The redox behavior of copper complexes was studied by cyclic voltammetry. The biological activity of the ligand and metal complexes has been studied on Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia Coli, and Bacillus subtilis by the well diffusion method using acetonitrile as solvent. The zone of inhibition values were measured at 37°C for 24 h. Antimicrobial screening tests show better results for the metal complexes than the ligand.     

Fabrication of novel Fe (III), Co (II), Hg (II), and Pd (II) complexes based on water-soluble ligand (NaH2PH): structural characterization,cyclic voltammetric,powder X-ray diffraction,zeta potential,and biological studies

Sodium4-hydroxy-3-([2-picolinoylhydrazineylidene]methyl)benzenesulfonate (NaH₂PH) was synthesized as a novel water-soluble ligand, by the condensation of picolinohydrazide with sodium 3-formyl-4-hydroxybenzenesulfonate. The (NaH₂PH) ligand and its isolated Co (II), Fe (III), Hg (II), and Pd (II) complexes were analyzed by elemental analysis and characterized by spectroscopic (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, UV–visible, powder XRD, ¹H NMR,¹³C NMR, MS) and magnetic measurements. By comparing IR spectra of both ligand and the metal complexes, one can assume that the (NaH₂PH) ligand behaves as a bi-negative tetradentate (ONNO) in [Co (NaPH)(H₂O)₂].3H₂O, and a mono-negative tridentate (ONO) in [Fe (NaPH)Cl₂(H₂O)] complex, whereas in [Hg₂(NaPH)Cl₂(H₂O)] complex, (NaH₂PH) coordinates as a bi-negative pentadentate (ONNNO) ligand via deprotonated OH group of phenolic ring (C=N)_Py and (C=N*) coordinated to one of Hg (II) ion and the oxygen atom of enolic group and (C=N)_az group with the another Hg (II) ion. Moreover, (NaH₂PH) acts as bi-negative tridentate (ONO) ligand in [Pd (NaPH)(H₂O)].2H₂O complex. The geometries of complexes were suggested based on the UV–visible spectra, magnetic measurements and confirmed by applying discrete Fourier transform (DFT) optimization studies. The thermal fragmentation of both [Pd (NaPH)(H₂O)].2H₂O and [Co (NaPH)(H₂O)₂].3H₂O complexes was performed, and the kinetic and thermodynamic parameters were computed using the Coats–Redfern and Horowitz–Metzger methods. The redox behavior of divalent ions of cobalt and mercury were discussed by the cyclic voltammetry technique in the presence and absence of (NaH₂PH) ligand. Biological potencies of the ligand and its metal complexes were evaluated as antioxidants (ABTS and DPPH), anticancer, DNA, and antimicrobial (Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis as Gram (+) bacteria, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa as Gram (−) bacteria, and Candida albicans as fungi).     

Synthesis and structural studies of (2E,3E)-3-[(6-{[(1E,2E)-2-(hydroxyimino)-1-methylpropylidene]amino}pyridin-2-yl)imino]butan-2-one oxime, ligand and its mono-, di- and trinuclear copper(II) complexes

A new dioxime ligand, (2E,3E)-3-[(6-{[(1E,2E)-2-(hydroxyimino)-1-methylpropylidene]amino}-pyridin-2-yl)imino]butan-2-one oxime, (H₂Pymdo) (3) has been synthesized in H₂O by reacting 2,3-butenedione monoxime (2) with 2,6-diaminopyridine. Mono-, di- and tri-nuclear copper(II) complexes of the dioxime ligand (H₂Pymdo) and/or 1,10-phenanthroline have been prepared. The dioxime ligand (H₂Pymdo) and its copper(II) complexes were characterized by ¹H-n.m.r., ¹³C-n.m.r. and elemental analyses, magnetic moments, i.r. and mass spectral studies. The mononuclear copper(II) complex of H₂Pymdo was found to have a 1:1 metal:ligand ratio. Elemental analyses, stoichiometric and spectroscopic data of the metal complexes indicated that the metal ions are coordinated to the oxime and imine nitrogen atoms (C=N). In the dinuclear complexes, in which the first Cu(II) ion was complexed with nitrogen atoms of the oxime and imine groups, the second Cu(II) ion is ligated with dianionic oxygen atoms of the oxime groups and are linked to the 1,10-phenanthroline nitrogen atoms. The trinuclear copper(II) complex (6) was formed by coordination of the third Cu(II) ion with dianionic oxygen atoms of each of two molecules of the mononuclear copper(II) complexes. The data support the proposed structure of H₂Pymdo and its Cu(II) complexes.

The complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility, infrared, electronic,¹H NMR and¹³C NMR spectral techniques. The nephelauxetic ratio (β), covalency (δ), bonding parameter (b ^1/2) and angular overlap parameter (η) have been calculated from Dy(III) complexes. Infrared and NMR spectral studies show thato-HABzGH acts as a neutral bidentate ligand in the adduct complexes and as a dinegative tridentate one in the neutral complexes. A coordination number of six has been proposed for the metal ion in all the complexes.     

New metal complexes derived from S-benzyldithiocarbazate (SBDTC) and chromone-3-carboxaldehyde: synthesis,characterization, antimicrobial,antitumor activity and DFT calculations

Novel monobasic tridentate ONS donor ligand (HL) was synthesized from the condensation reaction of chromone-3-carboxaldehyde with S-benzyldithiocarbazate (SBDTC). Reaction of the ligand with the metal ions copper(II), nickel(II), cobalt(II), oxidovanadium(IV), cerium(III), manganese(II), zinc(II), and cadmium(II) afforded dimeric complexes with the general formula [ML(Y)_m(H₂O)_x]₂·(Y)_m·nH₂O·zCH₃OH, Y?=?NO₃ or Cl, m?=?0–2, x?=?0–2, n?=?0–2, and z?=?0–1 for all complexes except oxidovanadium(IV) complex which has the formula [VOL(H₂O)]₂(SO₄). Structures of the ligand and its metal complexes were established through elemental, spectroscopic data (FT-IR, UV-Vis, and mass), thermal analyses, as well as conductivity and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The geometrical structures of the metal complexes are octahedral and square planar. The ligand and its complexes were subjected to in vitro bioassays against the gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria and the fungus strain with good results for some of these compounds. The antitumor activity of the ligand and its copper(II) and oxidovanadium(IV) complexes were investigated against HepG2 cell line. The molecular parameters of the ligand and its metal complexes have been calculated on the basis of DFT level implemented in the Gaussian 09 program, and computed data were correlated with the experimental results. The HOMO→LUMO electron transition potentially occurs from S-benzyldithiocarbazate to chromone moieties with 4.048?eV. The Mn(II) complex has the highest value of energy barrier, while Cu(II) complex has the lowest value among the complexes. All synthesized complexes have energy gap lower than free ligand and therefore these complexes are more reactive than the free ligand.

The Cr (III), Mn (II), Fe (III), Co (II), Ni (II), Cu (II) and Cd (II) complexes were prepared by reaction of its metal chlorides with new azo-dye ligand (H₂L). The ligand derived from 4,4′-oxydianiline and 2-amino-4-chlorophenol was synthesized in a 1:2 molar ratio. The structure of the ligand and its metal complexes was investigated using different tools such as elemental analysis (C, H, N and M), molar conductivity, IR, UV–vis, ¹H-NMR, mass spectrometry and thermogravimetric and differential thermogravimetric studies. The data showed that the ligand acted as a N,N,O,O-binegative tetradentate ligand. All metal complexes had a octahedral structure as depicted by spectral and elemental analyses. The conductivity data showed the electrolytic nature of the Cr (III) and Fe (III) complexes while the other complexes were nonelectrolytes. Thermal analysis studies showed the decomposition of the complexes in four to five steps with the weight loss of hydrated water in the first decomposition step followed by the coordinated water and ligand molecules. Biological activity was tested for the prepared compounds against four bacterial species (Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) and against two fungal species (Aspergillus fumigatus and Candida albicans). Also, all complexes were screened for anticancer activities against a breast cancer (MCF-7) cell line. The [Co(L)(H₂O)₂] complex showed the lowest IC₅₀ value. Molecular docking is a key tool in computer drug design. Therefore, investigation of protein receptors and ligand interaction plays a vital role in the design of structurally based drugs. As a result, docking studies were investigated for H₂L ligand, [Mn(L)(H₂O)₂] and [Ni(L)(H₂O)₂] complexes with 5KBC, 3V7B and 4G9M receptors.
